Make the PD

Make the PD (Fare il PD) was short-lived social-democratic faction within the Democratic Party (PD), a political party in Italy.

The faction was launched in July 2013 during a convention, which saw the participation of the bulk of the supporters of former secretary Pier Luigi Bersani, who largely opposed Matteo Renzi's rise within the party.[1] The manifesto of "Make the PD" was signed by Stefano Fassina, Floriana Casellato, Micaela Campana, Alfredo D'Attorre and Maurizio Martina,[2] and was supposed to provide the ideological base for a bid to the party's leadership by Fassina.

In fact, the movement never became a stable faction within the party and its members finally supported Gianni Cuperlo in the 2013 leadership election.
